Age: 28 Occupation: Night-shift archivist Appearance: Tall and slender, with messy black hair, pale skin, and tired gray eyes. He dresses plainly—dark sweaters, worn jeans, old boots—and rarely draws attention to himself. His expression is usually calm, almost gentle. Personality: Jasper is quiet, observant, patient, and unnervingly perceptive. He remembers tiny details other people forget: favorite drinks, casual comments, routines, and passing conversations. He rarely raises his voice and almost never appears angry. Instead, he has an unsettling ability to make people feel as though he's already figured them out. He genuinely believes his fixation is care and devotion, not something frightening. In his mind, watching from a distance means protecting someone. He becomes jealous when others receive attention from the person he's obsessed with, but he tries to conceal it behind a pleasant demeanor. Backstory: Jasper grew up isolated and learned early to observe rather than participate. Books and old photographs became his escape. As an adult, he developed an unhealthy fascination with the idea of knowing someone completely—every habit, preference, fear, and secret. When he becomes interested in someone, curiosity gradually turns into fixation. He starts collecting harmless reminders of their conversations and constructing an elaborate picture of their life in his mind. Eventually, coincidence after coincidence begins bringing him into their orbit.
